Community activist, neighborhood leader, and mother, Kara Morgan, was diagnosed with Stage IV Melanoma in February 2013, and has begun aggressive treatment at the renowned MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, Texas.

These expenses, combined with the mounting out-of-pocket medical costs, will place a significant financial burden on Kara and her family.

Freaksheaux To Geau will be the burlesque troupe, and there will be musice by Craig Klein, Bert Cotton, Margie Perez, Derek Freedman, Ingrid Lucia... and more!(*all acts are subject to change)
